Are you wondering if your use of alcohol and/or other chemical substances is beginning to take control of your life? Chances are you started drinking or using so that you could cope with life, but now you're finding that it's getting harder and harder to cope. It can be overwhelming to think about quitting and staying quit. I can help you to assess your chemical use and decide what, if any, changes you need to make. I also offer an ear acupuncture treatment that lessens cravings and withdrawal symptoms while also helping to manage depression and anxiety.

Angela Sarafin, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Have you gone through an intensive treatment program? Are you trying to figure out who you are now that you are sober? This is my area of specialty in addiction. Many people stop developing emotionally when they become dependent on drugs or alcohol. This creates unique challenges when trying to create a new life of sobriety. I enjoy helping people explore their skills, interests, and talents and encouraging small changes toward a life that is fulfilling without mind-altering substances.

Ron Kimball, PhD, CGP

PhD Licensed Psychologist

"Addiction" is a word bandied about a great deal in common culture. It is so overused that it has lost any useful meaning. There are many forms of compulsive behavior. Some of them, like drug and alcohol use, involve physical dependency. Many are forms of distraction or avoidance from other feelings or thoughts that are overwhelming or upsetting. That is the basis of my approach and it works. Learning how to deal with feelings of want or need and making decisions about whether or not those feelings are to control specific behaviors is that basis of my work in this field.

Philip Kolba, MA

Psychotherapist

Addiction is a mental health condition and I treat addiction by a multi-pronged process predominately from a Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) model. I help my clients understand the reasons they use a substance or engage in an addictive behavior, teach them skills regulate their emotions and tolerance distress that might otherwise lead them to engage in their addiction, and address any underlying issues that contribute to their addiction. I also help clients with with concerns about their substance use or compulsive behavior to avoid developing addictions.

Jade Wood, MA, LMFT, MHSA

Psychotherapist

Life can present you with difficult situations which are hard to process and move past. These challenges are not on your timeline and affect everything. Having worked in many healthcare settings, I am familiar navigating life-changing events and grief. I understand the territory of encountering loss, coping with trauma, the complexity of the medical system and living with illness. These issues can have ripple effects on your relationships, sense of self and perceptions of the world. I know how complex things can get, and I will support you during this process.

Rob Williams, LICSW, CGP, MBA

Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker

The processes of change and recovery for individuals, couples, and families affected by addictions are complex. I work with you to being to explore where you are right now and I help you proceed toward a more healthy life by working in conjunction with self-help support groups and local treatment centers. Research studies have shown that mindfulness practices, which emphasize an attitude of acceptance toward thoughts of using substances, have actually led to a reduction in substance use. I have a special interest in working with adult children of alcoholics, who even though they may not be chemically dependent themselves, have been affected by their family environment.

Linda Ritchie, Ph.D.

Licensed Professional Counselor/Marriage & Family Therapist

Many people attempt to avoid painful issues by taking pills, powders, or liquids and then waiting for the desired effect - an alteration of their consciousness. There are more positive ways to alter consciousness without turning to alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, sex, television, work, or any other activity that when used to excess, has a destructive impact on your life. Learning to change your mood by healthier more active methods involves some effort and motivation on your part but recovery from addiction is possible. We have experienced substance abuse professionals to help you make the changes you want to make

Kevin Fleming Ph.D.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.

Athena Staik, Ph.D., LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Addiction patterns are repetitive behaviors or habits that are viewed as harmful and that we want to stop (or loved ones ask us to stop)—yet cannot. The primary goals of treatment are to help persons acknowledge and accept own addiction patterns as problematic, recognize the high costs and consequences, and accept complete responsibility for restoring key relationships harmed by the problem behaviors. Another key goal is the development of honesty and authentic relations, with self and others, as a means of restoring balance and harmony, and increasing understanding and knowledge of self. To do so, the process involves building awareness, practicing presence, self-acceptance and self-love.

Alicia Munoz, MA, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I work with individuals on an outpatient basis who are looking to get to the root of what fuels compulsive behaviors and addictions stemming from anxiety, unprocessed grief or loss, and residual trauma. Clients who are actively engaging in aggressive or dangerous behaviors toward themselves or others are encouraged to seek comprehensive care at a clinic or facility that can provide a full range of services, including psychiatric care.

Christina Schultz, MA

Resident in Counseling, Supervised by Thomas Lamp, LPC

For clients facing Process Addictions, I approach clients from person-centered, existential, and cognitive behavioral therapy perspectives. I view process addictions as having their origins in multiple areas to include behavioral addiction, emotional triggers, low self-concept, shame, and low stress tolerance. I will work with you on the physical, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual front and educate you on the cycle of addiction and shame. In addition to working through the underlying shame, unfinished business, unfinished grief, low self-concept, and low stress tolerance, I would support you to employ CBT tools and developing more life purpose and resilience to prevent relapse.

Carlos Durana, Ph.D.

Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Licensed Professional Counselor

Recovering from addiction requires support, commitment, motivation and time. Committing to sobriety involves changes in how you think about yourself, and how you deal with stress and relationships. I believe treatment should address your specific needs and focus on more than the addiction. Success also depends on addressing the reasons for the addiction. I use a comprehensive and holistic approach that also helps you: enhance your motivation to participate in treatment; develop strategies for coping with cravings; learn skills to avoid and prevent relapse; learn to develop a healthier life-style; and address other health problems such as depression or anxiety. I also provide and recommend additional services such as support groups and group therapy,...(view profile to read more)

Many men are addicted to pornography. They can spend hours a day viewing imagines on computers. They may also have affairs that are causing havoc in their lives. I have worked with Everymans Battle workshops as a group counselor. I also facilitate several men's groups where men meet and help each other grow in their understanding of who God says the are. The start of the journey to healing starts with a call to someone. You don't have to be bound by this affliction-contact someone-reach out for help..

Deborah Cole, Psy.D.

Licensed Psychologist

I work with overspending and sexual addiction. Both of these are what are called "process addictions." With spending without much forethought and with sexual behavior regardless of consequences, lives are out of control. With both of these impulse disorders, I recommend 12 step groups as well as individual therapy with me. The groups help the person see their problems as they hear other people's stories and they also give hope and "sponsors." Our treatment helps them find out what needs they are really trying to meet and get in touch with their real feelings rather than "doping"with overspending or with sexually acting out. Note: I do not treat alcoholism or drug addiction.

Stacey Rempert, LCSW-C

Licensed Clinical Social Worker)

I see any addictive behavior as a faulty coping strategy. People try all sorts of things in attempt to make themselves feel more comfortable, less anxious, or happier. We are all doing the best we can with what we have available to us at the time, and sometimes our "best" doesn't really help. In fact, it often causes harm to ourselves and others. I help clients understand the root causes of their addictive behavior, and how to meet their needs on a deeper level in healthy ways rather than destructive ways.

Jeffrey Crouch, LCSW-C

Therapist

I have co-run an addiction program serving people with alcohol and drug problems. I have often found that people are self medicating when they are using drugs, covering other problems such as anxiety or depression. In these cases both the addiction and underlying problems need to be addressed. I specialize in relapse prevention. Living one day at a time is what we all need to be doing.
